Group all fetches together without interleived alu to let compiler optimize.
Also do the color samples only if needed.
Went from 3.86ms to [1.11-2.22]ms [min-max] for the 16samples resolve pass
on my nvidia card.
This shader is used instead of blitting back and forth to a single sample
buffer.
This means it resolves the color and depth samples and outputs a fragment
which can be depth tested and blended on top of an existing framebuffer.
We do static shader variation with manual loop unrolling for performance
reason. In my test I get 25% more perf with intel integrated gpu and 75%
performance gain with dedicated nvidia card compared to a single shader
with a uniform for sample count.
Now they are properly converted to Linear space before interpolation.
Since the only way to get vertex color in eevee and cycles is via the
attribute node with the CD_AUTO_FROM_NAME flag, we have to know at binding
time which type of buffer will be connected to this auto input.
We store this information inside the batch cache (together with the according
uniform name) and pass it as uniform to the shader which does conversion if
needed. The same shader can then be reused to draw another mesh with
different auto layers configuration.
Because:
- Less redundancy.
- Better suffixes.
Also a few modification to GPU_texture_create_* to simplify the API:
- make the format explicit to the texture creation process.
- remove the component count as it's specified in the GPUTextureFormat.
Now we always fill the slider with a vertical boundary. A bit hard to explain,
but very easy to see the difference.
I split the widget in three parts and used fragment shader discard to remove the
undesired bits. That means all the widget program is doing a bit extra
calculation.

Not really happy with the fix, but it works. With the new window draw method
we are no longer storing the 3D viewport in 4 buffers, by having the GPU
viewport function directly as the 3rd buffer. This means we need to draw the
action zones into it, and so we need to keep the framebuffer bound a little
longer.
For Blender 2.8 we had to be compatible with very old OpenGL versions, and
triple buffer was designed to work without offscreen rendering, by copying
the the backbuffer to a texture right before swapping. This way we could
avoid redrawing unchanged regions by copying them from this texture on the
next redraws. Triple buffer used to suffer from poor performance and driver
bugs on specific cards, so alternative draw methods remained available.
Now that we require newer OpenGL, we can have just a single draw method
that draw each region into an offscreen buffer, and then draws those to
the screen. This has some advantages:
* Poor 3D view performance when using Region Overlap should be solved now,
since we can also cache overlapping regions in offscreen buffers.
* Page flip, anaglyph and interlace stereo drawing can be a little faster
by avoiding a copy to an intermediate texture.
* The new 3D view drawing already writes to an offscreen buffer, which we
can draw from directly instead of duplicating it to another buffer.
* Eventually we will be able to remove depth and stencil buffers from the
window and save memory, though at the moment there are still some tools
using it so it's not possible yet.
* This also fixes a bug with Eevee sampling not progressing with stereo
drawing in the 3D viewport.

This allows for background rendering with EEVEE and other opengl render
engine.
I've only tested it on Linux for the moment so I can't say about other
platforms.
We do lazy init because we cannot assume we will need Ghost for rendering
before having parsed all arguments and we cannot know if a script will
trigger rendering. This is also because it currently does not work without
any display server (blender will crash).
Added Object Overlap Overlay
- Added R32UI support to GPU_framebuffer
- Added R32U support to draw manager
- The overlay mode has a object data pass that will render 'needed' data to specific buffers so we can mix them together via a deferred rendering. In future will also add UV's and other data
- Overlap is implemented as an overlay so it could be used on top of the Scene lighted Solid mode (that will be rendered by Eevee.

Dithering the output color for 8bit precision framebuffer with bayer matrix.
On my tests the bayer matrux patterns are not noticeable at all.
Note that it also does that in opengl rendered mode which can be in a much
higher bitdepth. We can fix that if that's a problem in the future but I
doubt it will.
Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
Folders removed entirely:
* //extern/recastnavigation
* //intern/decklink
* //intern/moto
* //source/blender/editors/space_logic
* //source/blenderplayer
* //source/gameengine
This includes DNA data and any reference to the BGE code in Blender itself.
We are bumping the subversion.
Pending tasks:
* Tile/clamp code in image editor draw code.
* Viewport drawing code (so much of this will go away because of BI removal
that we can wait until then to remove this.
The depsgraph was always created within a fixed evaluation context. Passing
both risks the depsgraph and evaluation context not matching, and it
complicates the Python API where we'd have to expose both which is not so
easy to understand.
This also removes the global evaluation context in main, which assumed there
to be a single active scene and view layer.

E.g. the vertices created for each of the defines would require a
certain offset. If you don't know what to look for, finding out about
this is pretty difficult. Make them easily searchable instead.
There is quite some mess going on in that most of the old triangle
drawing code is still there, but does almost nothing effectively.
Instead values are hardcoded in the shader, however it doesn't support
the drawing options the triangle functions expose.
E.g. the 'where' variable to set triangle direction doesn't work.
I can see how it's slowing things down: glFinish make sure that every query
are finished but the first query may have been finished a long time ago.
This might create bubbles because of the PIL_sleep_ms.
- Disable scissor test for fast clear. This could lead to some issues but
I cannot think of one and could not find one either.
- Manually wait for queries to be available instead of making the driver
wait and issue warnings.
This port the Blurring of blf fonts to the final drawing shader.
We add a bit of extra padding to each glyph so that jittering the texture
coord does not sample the neighbor glyphs.
